said Stephen Elop, CEO of Nokia, the company is well done selecting Windows Phone and Ash. Otherwise, you would be, he says, destroyed by Samsung.

Stephen Elop, during the presentation of the financial results of your company, could not avoid questions about Android and the possibility of the use of Nokia smartphones. It is true that the money received from Microsoft in exchange for giving up, with the exception of Asha, other operating systems have allowed Nokia to survive, but there is no denying that Android, not Windows Phone dominates the market.

– A few years ago we feared the risk that one manufacturer dominate the Android ecosystem. Already suspected who the manufacturer is, given its resources, vertical integration, and humbly we realized that we are very late in making decisions. Many others have worked in this ecosystem. And what is today androidowym ecosystem? Today we have a lot of equipment, really good devices from many different companies, but only one company is by far the dominant player – Stephen Elop said, referring to Samsung.

fact, since Nokia has decided to enter into an alliance with Microsoft, in 2010, Samsung became the most popular manufacturer of Android devices. Samsung’s biggest competitor, the HTC, is faced with growing financial problems. Winning the highest marks in reviews of the HTC One has sold five million copies in the four months since its launch. For comparison, the same Samsung Galaxy S 4 has sold 10 million copies of a sudden a month after its release.

The market Windows Phone, Nokia is the dominant player, accounting for 85 percent of the devices sold in the operating system. Her biggest rival (again HTC) is responsible for 12 percent of sales devices running Microsoft.

Nokia, however, still does not make money. The quarter-on-quarter declines in financial losses, and markets a growing line of smartphones. This does not change the fact that the company reported $ 150 million loss for the last fiscal quarter.
